Chicago, October 23. Two representatives 6f New York newspapers had exciting experience with Adolph Luetgert this morning In one of the private chambers cf the county jail. The young men waited upon Jailer Whitman, and asked that he allow them to have a private audience with sausage maker, and Whitman consented, and had Luetgert brought into the jail barber chop. Whitman then retired to the outer corridor, and closed the door upon the two newspaper men and Luetgert. Suddenly the door was opened and the prospective Interviewers rushed out.

Luetgert followed. "What? You think I'm a foolT" he exclaimed. "You get something out of me. and use it against me on the sec- ond trial? Not much." The newspaper men fled, and Luetgert continued his tirade. Luetgcrt's liberty, temporary or permanent, will be determined only by the results of a second trial.

States Attorney Deneen has prepared a coup for the sausage maker's attorneys, whereby the prisoner's freedom can be ob- tained only on the issues of a trial, if terminates in his favor. Mr. Deneen is prepared to resist any attempt to secure Luetgert's release on i bail, but according to Mr. Vincent, the States attorney's fears are without rouuoauon. Because, as me attorney says, no attempt will be made to get Luetgert out on bail for a few days.

Prosecutor Deneen is prepared for writs of habeas corpus and writs of er-j ror to the Supreme Court, and if Luet- gert's release is attempted by either these two means Deneen will place Luetgert on trial at once, ueneen is positive that he can secure another jury in Cook county. A CIPHER MESSAGE Supposed to Contain the Soanish Reply. Tone of Newspapers Warllke- I'licusine. in Olueial Cireles. Madrid, October 23.

Friday night, U. S. Minister Woodford cabled a 2.C00 word cipher dispatch to Secretary Sherman. It is supposed to contain Spain's re- ply to the demands of the United States, relative to the Cuban question. Its substance is not known, but if it was correctly outlined in the Spanish newspapers, it gives the United States no satisfaction as to the termination of the war, and accuses Americans of be ing responsible for its continuance by open sympathy and Indirect aid by filibustering expeditions.

The tone of the Madrid newspapers is war-like, and while responsible Spaniards deny any chance of hostili ties, there Is evident uneasiness in oQ-cial circles. OF ARSOI Made Against a Citizen of Windsor. Said That Tire Bags Cansed the Terrible Fire Lust Sunday. Windsor, N. Octcbrr 23.

From Injuries Eleeelred In the Wreck Wednesday The Nad Detail. Engineer William Mathers, who waa so badly injured in the II. D. wreck, Wednesday afternoon, died a3 the result of bis iujuries this morn ing. At Erst it was thought by the physl clans that Mr.

Mathera had not been badly hurt, aud that he would be up and about in a few days. His condition until last evening was very favorable, but from 7 o'clock until his death shortly before 6 o'clock this morning, ho grew steadily wors. Doctors Reeve, Goodhue, and Shepherd were in close attendance, but all that medical science, could avail, waa powerless to sava his lite. He was Internally injured. The deceased was 57 years old.

He leaves a wife and two children, Miss Nellie, in her sixteenth year, and Mrs. Dr. C. T. Shepherd; three brothers, James, of Springfield, and David and John, of thl3 city, and two sisters, Mrs, Sarah Reeder, and Mrs.

October 23. The St. Louis Iodge of Elks has twisted the tail of the British lion, or at least that much of it as is represented by Sir Henry Irving and Ellen Terry. Once upon a time the Elks prepared to entertain Irving and Miss Terry, and they invited many leading St. Louis- ans to their rooms, where SoOO had been spent in preparing for fhem.

After a long and tedious wait, it is said that Sir Henry and his leading lady appeared with an Ice hook in cno hand and sprinkling can in the other, and so thoroughly dampened the con viviality of the company that the de canters did not hold enough antidote to keep off the shivers. For this crime, the lodge Friday night (having just become thoroughly convinced that Sir Henry and Miss Terry were not Kood fellows), amid solemn ceremonials, took their pictures from the wall and sold them to a sec ond-hand dealer.

Our friends will be glad to know the winter work has begun with great enthusiasm. The Choral class met on Thursday evening, in the parlor. This class is one that is particularly taking, for with a good leader and a pianist that keeps accurate time and music that ia inspirating, one cannot help but sing. The social evening was a great success. The parlor was filled with young people, who had come to enjoy the graphophone.

Miss Houck's recitations were thoroughly enjoyable, particularly the poems of Whitcomb Riley. Both the Choral class, and the social evening3 are free; come and bring a freind with you. The gymnasium committee have secured special rate3 from the Dayton Turkish Bath where members of the gymnasium classes by securing tickets of the Physical director may enjoy a turklsh bath or tho swimming pool at a generous reduction. The gymnasium is still on the increase. We have a special ticket for the evening classes, which was re duced last.

The dressmaking class has out grown the regular dressmaking room. The other classes are quite as interesting.

Furthermore lt'3 a treat satisfaction to know that it not a silly, prudish thing, with its "handa" all the time before its "face." Bright and innocent as it may seem, it has its dark sides or shadows. In fact the "shadow" is really the sub stance of the whole contrivance.

Having shown this thing up la its worst light, and admitting that its doings are of a shady nature, yet I trust that the honorable association the Dayton Historical Society in whose care it is to be given, will not on that account. hesitate, or be deterred from taking charge of and carefully looking after and guarding the same. I hope they will not object, because it has no "bal ance wheel. They surely ought to appreciate it, and most highly, for it comes to them brand new no "second hand" about it. It comes with a main spring of love and affection, and the donors' deep interest in our city.

But above all I want to impress my youth ful hearers wiih the fact that it comes llko a superior time-piece, full jew eled, but Jewels perceptible only to the mind eye.

And now my good friends as I am about run down, and before some one will wind me up by calling "time," I will conclude by again thanking and mak ing public acknowledgment of the city's great obligation to the kind don ors of this most appropriate, yet superb present doubly valuable, because it Is the creation of Dayton genius, and the product of Dayton's skilled artisans whose best efforts were put forth for the love of the cause, and not the time" there was In it. To the Dayton Historical Society I extend hearty con gratulations on the acquisition of so valuable an adjunct to the city's revered log cabin, with the wih that the sun may always shine brightly on both, and their shadows never grow less.

At the close of the Mayor's address. Mr. Charles Wuichet, a member of the Executive Committee of the Historical Society, mp.de a few characteristic remarks. He spoke of early Dayton, and told much of interest concerning the ancient mound-builders in this vicinity. In re gard to the careful researches into their mode of living, he said that the real home of that ancient and myster ious race, was in the Dayton Union Depot.

His remarks were much appreciated. In this connection it is proper to state that thanks are due to Mr. Wuichet for the concrete foundation for the sundial. Thomas Hellrigle was present with his veteran drum corps, and rendered some stirring music. Old-time bard cider and ginger bread, were served by a bevy cf pretty girls, making the event of great interest and one long to be remembered.

The sundial serves to keep in mind the sentiment of ancient times. The ancients used sundials long before clocks were ever thought cf. In fact the earliest mention made of sundials can be found in Isaiah. Then and for mnny hundred years after, sundiai3 were objects of utility, but in the present day and pge. they are regarded more as rencs and ornaments.

TO BLOW UP DM Italian Strikers Violent Threats, and Trouble is Feared. Sing Sing, N. October 23. Sheriff Addison Johnson, of White Plains, and an armed force of fifty deputies are on guard at the New Cornell dam, where iiU Italians are on a strike. The mea declare they have been forced to strike by a long series of oppressions, and make violent threats, and declare they will blow up the dam and the company's store with dyna mite, of which they declare they have obtained 600 pounds.

As Is usual in such disturbances, the women are the most excited, and are urging the men on. A sharp encounter occurred early this morning between the strikers and deputies, which the former won. but no one was badly hurt. Further se rious trouble is feared. The fight occurred when the deputies tried to put imported laDorers to work.

THE RUMOR IS CONFIRMED General DuCleld Asked to Resign by the President. Washington, D. October 23. The rumor that the resignation of General Y. W.

Dufdeld. Chief of the Coast and Geologic Survey, has been called for by the President, is confirmed. The chief was appointed to his ofiice by President Cleveland upon the recom mendation of Don M. Dickinson. The leading charge against General Duflield is incompetency, but it is also conceded that he 13 too old to perform such important duties.

General Duflield, who evidently does not relish being removed In so summary a manner, is reported to have preferred charges himself against three of the men under him. He says they are not only incompetent, but they have conspired against their chief. All three deny the allegations and ask to be heard. aa the it of When Three Suspicious Characters Called Thieves Still About. At a late hour last night, or more properly, between 1 and 2 o'clock this morning, the night baker at John Saul's bakery, corner of first and Webster streets, heard a knock at the door.

Upon opening the door, three men pushed their way in, and asked him where the boss was. They were told that Mr. Saul was in bed, and they then asked the baker If he was alone. He said yes, but betrayed no sign of fear. One of the trio of unwelcome intruders told him to go and wake up the Mr.

Saul, that he wanted to sea him and sell him a gas burner. The unseasonable hour made the request ridiculous, and the baker refused to leave the bake shop, saying that he had only been about the place two nights and was not acquainted with the location of Mr. Saul's bedroom, and would not disturb him. Just as the trio began assuming ithreatening attitude voices were i heard known men left hurriedly, and to the jcall of his friends, the baker thinks, jtke preventation cf 6ome unlawful act is due. The friends referred to work for the Bauman Bakery, and were oa their way home.

OTHER THEFTS. The Lynn residence, at 141 Clinton street, was burglarized yesterday after- jnoon, and several valuables, the most highly valuable being a watch chain, were stolen.

Lare ntl Iiatuusiastfc Sleet-lugs ul Carnegie Hall and in the Tenement District. New York, October 23. Two new developments In the politic situation mar the calculations of the political machine bosses. A few days ago the general opinion that the verdict would be Van Wyck, one, Tracy two, wa3 a copper-rivited cinch prevailed. Then came the Low Carnegie Hall meeting Thursday night, which left the air out cf the Tracy boom that had been gaining ground for a week, and Henry George's triumphal meetings In the tenement house dirtrict Friday niyht, has caused deep, dark brown study on the part of various experts in the Fourteenth street wigwam today.

Perplexity among organization men caused by the phenomenally heavy registration, Is likely to give way to a feeung cf uneasiness. A light registration has. in the past, been favor able to the organizations, and especially Tammany. That was true because ram or shine, the district leaders have managed to get the partisans to the enrollment booths. This year everybody has registered, and the independent voters are out in full Force.

Now the party leaders are wonder ing if, arter nil, there is to be a stam pede that will upset all catenations: They had figured that the independent vote would be divided in such a way that it would do no harm, but the Low and George demonstrations have caus- ea alarnl- i ne uarnegie nail meeting was one oi the bige est demonstrations that has ever been held in New York. Such Republicans as Mayor Strong, Joseph Choate, Eli II. Root and General Wager Swain declared for Low, and they opened wider the party breach that was being closed and the number and enthusiasm of the crowd indicated that the breach will remain wide open. Friday night George appeared for the first time on the crowded east side, the stronghold of Tammany, and among people not naturally disposed to be demonstrative, he was given an ovation. Mention ot the old fight in 188S, when they stood by him roused the utmost enthusiasm.

They cheered him over and over again. His earnestness confidence, and his promisit' rrffrirs were with delight. 15f.sat does p.H mean? In tha ques tion the poIUlc'ans are asking today. Low has practically beaten Tracy and they wonder now If George is to head Van Wyck. AT FAIRVIEW PARK The Great Came of Charity Base Ball.

A 2,000 Word Cipher Message Received Frtm Minister Wocdiord Iead Slieriuaii lo Hurry to the While Houe fur CouiVrenee ith the I'rcsideiit. Washington, D.

October 23. The Cuban storm seems to be coming to a focus here this afternoon. A 2.000 word cipher message was received from Minister Woodford ia Madrid, which led Secretary Sherniaa to hurry to the White House at a faster gait than he has walked In years, and he waa soon closeted with th President. From his agitated expression, when he came from the conference, many who saw Llm. came to the contlualoa that there was a basis for tho report that something important had been re ceived.

A swarm of excited Inquirers descended upon the secretary, but repelled them all and firmly declined to fay a word about tho purport of his vh-it to the White House. He would not even ray that a message had beca received frcra Woodford, but tha information aa to this came from a reliable source. All torts of rumors were afloat, but none of them could bo connrtiici. ln spite of the reticence of the Stat ucpartnxnt cCUials and a denial at the State Department that a nusxago was received in cipher from Minister Woodford, there Is a general in oflicial circles that th. administration is about to bring the troublesome Cuban question to a conclusion.

The cloKcnt freinds cf President Me-Kinley have maintained for several months that he wanted only to effer the friendly services of the United States to Spain, Ir. the hope that tho war in Cuba misrht 1 stopped. Tho point made la theso dispatches more than a month lhat an aaswer was politely rerun sted by October 10, on the part of the administration ia borne cut by the latest advices from Madrid. No ou sider can break into the State Department secrets with a crow bar, aud it is the piniey of the officials In that branch of the government to kerp back the news until they are ready to touch the match to it; but when the venerable secretary, Sherman, goes hopping through a hard rain, on foot to the Wlii'e House, and w'th Jude Day out of town, tool people's tongues will wag, end the prevailing impression this afternoon is that something; big is up. Gossip has that between now and the time the President starts for Ohio, important infoinintion in Hkely to be given out regarding the attitude of the t'agasta miiiiaty toward the United States war.

1 M. S. Bena to the Schantz Schwind Onocf the Finest Instruments of th3 Kind Ever Matte. Judge CIiarZfH VF. I)atln'g Presentation Speech and Uajor Linxweiler' AYTON baa one of the finest sun-dials to be seen beneath the great orb of day.

It waa made by the Buckeye Iroa and Brass Works 1 areely through tue personal enterprise and generosity of Mr. Charles E. Pease, and waa formally presented to the city this morning at Van Cleve Park. The magnificent instrument was dec orated with flags, a large throng of representative citizens was present, and the glorious October sun shone from a clear eky. In all its warmth and beanty.

The ceremonies, though brief. were interesting and impressive. Judge Charles W. Dustin. as President of the Dayton Historical Society, made the presentation: JUDGE DUSTIN'S ADDRESS There is no monument to the dead fo appropriate as something of bene fit to the living.

The greatest monument to Daniel Cooper, who owned and platted the greater part of the original city of Dayton, is the park which he dedicated to the free use of all its citteen3 forever. The greatest monument to the Soldi of Montgomery county Is not the handsome pile of marble and granite that you see yonder, but a re-united and happy country, and our greatest tribute to them is the National Soldiers' Home, where the survivors of those who offered their lives for their country la the civil war, are cared for in comfort to the end of their days. The greatest monument to Thos. Edison when he is gone (which I hope will not be for fifty years) will not be the granite shaft that may he erected over his grave, but it will be the telephone, the phonograph, the incandescent light, and the various uses of electricity which he has revealed to ihe world, and which has given the greatest boom to progress since Guttciiberg discovered the art of printing. Amid all the memorials to the Illustrious dead in that majestic temple, St.

Paul's Cathedral. London, the most striking is the one to its architect and builder. Sir Christopher Wren, and reads: "If you seek my monument, look around you." So, the finest monument of stone or bronze which we can erect to the pioneers of this city, will at best be insignificant, and nothing more than a guide post, a pointer to their real monument, which is this magnificent city itself. In grateful memory, however, of their foresight and gratitude, the hardships wjiirh they endured, and the dangrrs which they incurred in establishing this city, where we have found homes and friends and happiness, this cabin has been preserved, this sundial has been erected, and a Historical Society has been organized to collect and preserve the material things that were theirs, and to record and perpetuate the story of what they did and suf fered. It was appropriate that the ladles should select a sundial for this special memorial, not only because it is an ancient mode of indicating the time, and her.ea would be in keeping with the that surround it, but because it is an emblem of Sdrlity and stability, marked characteristics of the American pioneer.

For a hundred years, no doubt, this dial will stand, reporting with unfail ing accuracy, the daily course of the sun. solemnly reminding mortal man with messages direct from Heaven it self of the remorseless flight of time. It will be a warning to the idle and the careless, and yet an encouragement to the faithful though despond-nt, for it will indicate that even the trials of this life are passing and that the sun is shining, and to everybody it will preach a silent sermon, to be "True as the ne. dle to the pole, Or, as the dial to the sun." And now, through yon. Mayor LInx- weller.

In behalf of the ladies of the Iog Cabin Committee, I have the hanor and the pleasure of presenting to the city of Dayton, this beautiful sundl.il, to stand on this spot forever as a memorial to the early settlers of the city, cf which you have the honor to be the executive head. In behalf of the city, Mayor Jacob unxweuer. responceu MAYOR LINXWEILER'3 ADDRESS. Mr. President and Fellow Citizens: On behalf cf the City of Dayton I take in receiving and ac cepting from the Log Cabin Committee this very handsome and practical gift of a sundial or a sna-cloek.

For no better or more appropriate purpose could the honorable committee have expended the funds at its disposal. than such a memorial. And no bettor or more fitting place, could have been found for it, th.m right here in this park, dedicated to the memory cf Day. ton's founders and early settlers. To this primitive cabin a relic of Dav.

ton earliest history, this primitive time though of modern con struction, will form a most appropriate appnrtenanee and be fully in accord with the ideas that control this place. I therefore consider both the gift and location a most happy selection, and fee! that the committee Is deserving of not only the thanks but also the praise and hearty congratulations from every true Paytonian. It is a great pleasure to add this new time piece to the city's lis of town clocks, and greater one, to think that It will he the only one In town that win always mn pd run true and correctly, and reonlre no hired man with forsooth a "political puM" to rerulate and wlndi It.

The police claim to have evidence to prove that Mclntyre wilfully set fire to his house in order to defraud insurance companies. A large crowd of excited people quickly gathered, as the prisoner was led through the streets, and cries cf "lynch him," were frequently heard. A colored youth named Charles Croxon, who has been arrested on suspicion, tell3 a startling ctory which, if true, proves that fire bugs were the cause of the disaster.

Croxon says he was asleep in the dive run by Fletch er, along side whose place the fire started, and that Fletcher occupied the same room. About 2 o'clock Mclntyre knocked at the doer, and called out that the barn was on fire, but the men made no attempt to extinguish it.
